I had a giggle when I read your comments, I had diahorrea like a tap had been opened, imagine the mess I would have been in if I took meds for constipation in advance! We do have to laugh about things and now its all over I can see the funny side of the situation.
Shelli another thought, a big thing for me was the fatigue, when the doctors told me that I would experience fatigue I thought I'd be a little tired I was not prepared for being out cold for 3-4 days. The 1st time my huband left me sleep he thought it would be good for me, ahh no I got dehydrated and ended up in hospital. So be prepared for the levels of the side effects they are different.
cheers
